Food Tech



Walt: make food around the world


I really enjoyed food technology because every Monday we make different cultural food. We had to make chop suey because we were heading to Tonga. I also enjoyed making chop suey because you had to mix lots of other recipes. I didn’t like making Pesupo because it tasted funny to me that's why I don’t like it. Pesupo is kind of tricky to make also because you have to combined staff really quick. At home I tried making Easter rich chocolate tarts because I told my family that it tasted so nice and that they had to try it out. When they tasted the rich chocolate tartes they wanted me to make more. Next time I would love to make an Afghanistan culture food that they make for a celebration or someone's birthday.

Milk in school


Walt: share our thoughts on ‘’milk in schools’’.

I think that all schools need milk because if we get a milo and it’s really hot you could tip a little bit in and it would be just right for you. Also you could use it for making a filling nice and cold after coming from the dentist.

I think they should because some parents don’t work and they pay the bills for your house and they won’t have enough money left. The government is the one that funes all the schools so it should be able to pay for the milk to.

It could help them by not getting burned when they drink it. It could also help them by having a warm milk and it could help our bones and muscles get stronger.


Character study


In the story that I was reading Alan is a hard working boy and he loves his cat Daisy. Alan  has a brother Ben who is fourteen and he is ten. He also has two littlies Beth and Fin. Every day before Alan goes sleep Daisy sleeps at the end of Alan bed and she always watched him do his homework. Alan has some odd jobs. Every week Alan get twenty dollars. He will spend some and save some to get a radio-controlled plane.

Alan is a hard worker because he works every week to try and earn some money for what he really wants. He is also a focussed person. If Alan was told to go and do something or get something he would go and get. He is also carrying because when Daisy got hit by the car her leg was badly injured and she was losing a lot of blood. He was so scared because he thought that Daisy would of died so he quickly rushed her to the vets. Mrs Jameson said that Daisy was in a really bad shape and then Alan said is Daisy going to be okay.

Walt: Exploring probability with the help of a simulation.

This week for maths it was really fun because we had to play a dice game and get a partner. My partner was Devonn. Devonn and I took turns at rolling the dice, we both had fun playing. We had roll it five times for every month and then total it all up. On the dice had $7, $4, $1, $2, $10, $5 which kind of made it hard to total. thought it would of been easy but it was hard because you never know which number it would land on.

Cross country rap/poem


Walt: write a rap/poem

As i’m running down the hill I could
feel myself wanting to sprint i’m nearly there
it’s not so far but next to me is my
friend  Racer she is really fast,

I can beat her and come 2nd in the cross
country but suddenly I could feel my
legs getting really heavy like i’m stuck
in the sand at the beach,

Sweat rolling down my face like it’s
going to rain, just eleven big steps
and i’m nearly there just five more steps and
i’m at the finish line,

I came 2nd i’m really happy I can’t believe it,
After I finish the race I could feel myself dehydrated
and needed water in my systems, I grabbed a
water bottle and wanted more so I grabbed a second
and still wanted more but I had to stop or I will
explode, It was the end of cross country I was so
happy that I don’t need to do any more running,

My collage


At Tamaki college I had to do a collage with heaps of my pictures that I had sketched in photo shop. I thought that it was really hard because you had to go through a really long process of making and putting your picture that your going to sketch on and put it as your background. It was really fun and cool because we had a lot of fun with the teacher over there. She was a fun teacher to do sketching with.

Sad day for everyone


On 28 August Cantik died, she had been suffering from cancer and arthritis. It was so sad for everyone because she had been given euthanasia so that she doesn't die on her own in a lot of pain.

A long time ago in 1994 Wellington Zoo received a Sumatran tiger from Burger's Zoo in the Netherlands. Her name was Cantik. Cantik lived for more than 20 years. People believed that Sumatran tigers only live in the wild until they reached the age 10. But Cantik lived until she was 21 years old.

If the Wellington Zoo had two females they would send one of the females to another zoo that has a male Sumatran tiger so that they could breed. When Sumatran tigers breed they don’t really become extinct because the more cubs they have, the more Sumatrans tigers they get. They are also the smallest five subspecies. The tigers are really amazing at swimming but on land they chase their prey into the water where they can’t get away and are hopeless. There are only three to four hundred Sumatran tigers left in the wild.

I think that Cantik should receive euthanasia because they die peacefully. They could announce that one of Cantik children are their in her place and that it’s really good because she’s not all gone her daughter or son has a little bit of her in him/her. I will miss her so much but she is in a better place where she don’t need to go threw all that pain and dieing on her own.

I think that Cantik would live in peace and she will be really happy because she didn’t really want to go threw all that to die on her own.
